i understand General Yevgeni Primakov, has been hired as a consultant by the US department of Homeland Security. what's your take on this guy? -- Me: ???!!! I would be very very surprised to learn this was true. I did a quick google on it when I read this, because my jaw hit the floor, and the only reference I could find was on a US far-right site. Where did you hear this?

Primakov is the architect of the so-called Primakov doctrine, which supprts creating a Russia/China/India block to oppose US unilateralism. He was high, high up in the KGB and is a specialist in the Middle East. He has known Saddam for 30 years. I would be shocked if I heard he was looking for the US. Do you have a link?
